Historical Australian Government Contract Notice Data

This is the historical contract notice (CN) data reported by Australian Government\r\nagencies for the years 1999 to 2020. The CN data has been sourced from\r\nthe Gazette Publishing System (GaPS) for the years 1999 to 2006-07, inclusive,\r\nand from the AusTender from 1 July 2007 onwards.\r\n\r\nEffective 1 July 2007, mandatory contract reporting was transferred to\r\nAusTender [www.tenders.gov.au](http://www.tenders.gov.au/) . Notices of\r\ncontracts that were active at 1 July 2007 were migrated to AusTender and will\r\ntherefore appear in both databases. These records are identifiable on\r\nAusTender by the GaPS ID reference. The reporting requirements for GaPS differed from those for AusTender reporting in terms of value thresholds, industry sector codes and contract confidentiality. For further information please contact the AusTender Help Desk at [[e-mail]](mailto:[e-mail]).\r\n\r\nThe CN data reflects contractual information reported by entities in accordance with entities' procurement publishing obligations. Please note that the data contained within each file was correct at the time of extraction. Data may change over time as agencies undertake data quality assurance processes or as contract information is varied. The contract values on AusTender represent the total maximum value of each contract over its life, including where contracts span multiple years. AusTender data does not reflect annual expenditure. \r\nThere is a Data Dictionary available for AusTender Contract Notice information which provides a full list of all the Contract Notice dataset field names and explains the data type, whether it is mandatory, and contains a description to provide further context for the data.\r\n\r\nNew contracts and contract amendments published within the last eighteen (18) months can be found by perusing the weekly [AusTender Contract Notice Export\r\nfiles](http://data.gov.au/dataset/austender-contract-notice-export/).\r\n\r\nContracts reported on AusTender are categorised under the United Nations Standard Products and Services Code (UNSPSC) which is reviewed and updated periodically. The UNSPSC is selected by an entity when reporting a contract to reflect the primary purpose of the contract. Below is a list of goods and services category codes used by Australian Government agencies to code their open approaches to market and contracts awarded for publication on AusTender. Code numbers starting with the prefixes **43 a Information Technology, Broadcasting and Telecommunications** and **81 a Engineering and Research and Technology Based Services** apply in the main to Information and Communications Technology related contracts, primarily ICT goods and services respectively.\r\n\r\nAusTender Contract Notice data is also available as an Application Programming Interface (API) which provides CN data in the [Open Contracting Data Standard](http://standard.open-contracting.org/) (OCDS) schema.\r\n\r\n本数据集为1999年至2020年间澳大利亚政府各机构上报的历史合同通知（Contract Notice，CN）数据。1999年至2006-07财年（含）的CN数据源自公报发布系统（Gazette Publishing System，GaPS），2007年7月1日起的数据则来源于AusTender平台。 自2007年7月1日起，合同报送的强制义务迁移至[AusTender平台](http://www.tenders.gov.au/)。2007年7月1日仍处于生效状态的合同通知会被迁移至AusTender，因此会同时出现在两个数据库中。在AusTender平台中，此类记录可通过GaPS标识符进行识别。公报发布系统与AusTender平台的报送要求在金额阈值、行业分类代码及合同保密条款等方面存在差异。如需进一步信息，请联系AusTender服务台，邮箱：[e-mail]。 本CN数据反映了各实体按照采购发布义务上报的合同信息。请注意，每个文件中的数据在提取时均为准确状态。随着各机构开展数据质量保障工作或合同信息发生变更，数据可能会随时间推移产生变化。AusTender平台上的合同金额为每份合同全生命周期内的最高总价值，适用于跨多年度的合同场景。AusTender数据并不反映年度支出情况。 AusTender合同通知信息配有数据字典（Data Dictionary），其中完整列出了CN数据集的所有字段名称，解释了各字段的数据类型、是否为必填项，并附带说明以提供数据的相关背景信息。 近18个月内发布的新增合同及合同修正案，可通过浏览每周更新的[AusTender合同通知导出文件](http://data.gov.au/dataset/austender-contract-notice-export/)获取。 在AusTender平台上报的合同按照联合国标准产品与服务分类代码（UNSPSC）进行分类，该分类代码会定期审核更新。实体在上报合同时需选择UNSPSC代码，以体现合同的核心用途。以下为澳大利亚政府各机构用于对公开市场招标及中标合同进行分类的商品与服务分类代码列表，其中前缀为**43 信息技术、广播与电信**及**81 工程及基于技术的研发服务**的代码，主要分别对应信息与通信技术（ICT）相关合同，前者主要涵盖ICT货物，后者主要涵盖ICT服务。 AusTender合同通知数据还可通过应用程序编程接口（API）获取，该接口以[开放合同数据标准（OCDS）](http://standard.open-contracting.org/)数据模式提供CN数据。
